New submission from Tim Delaney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: If there is a directory to be copied to _static, Sphinx first attempts to delete any directory by the same name in the _static directory. See attached sphinx_static_exc.txt for the exception.
The simplest fix is to change the call (line 595, Sphinx 0.4.2) to:: shutil.rmtree(targetname) to:: shutil.rmtree(targetname, ignore_errors=True) It would also be preferable if instead of blindly doing rmtree/copytree, only updated files be copied to _static. ---------- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation tools (Sphinx) files: sphinx_static_exc.txt messages: 74551 nosy: georg.brandl, tcdelaney severity: normal status: open title: Error copying directory to _static in Sphinx type: crash Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file11752/sphinx_static_exc.txt _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4081> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
